I changed the battery in my F80 M3 remote this morning. It took three minutes, and that included googling it and watching the YouTube video. It is not only meant to be opened by the vehicle owner, it is also very simple to do.

That being said, I don't think I would ever put my fob in the fridge. Except on opposite day, of course, where I always put my key in the fridge and open my car with a can of beer.
